Chapter 259

"What are you smiling at? Do you thinkthis is a joke?" Javier snapped.

Jasper replied, "Yes, I do."

"You've crossed the line, Jasper Beckett!"Javier roared, slamming his fi st on the table.

"You want me to marry her so thecompany's reputation can stay intact. I would applaud you for the quick thinking, really. But if we're arguing about personalities, then I can only say 'like father, like son.1" His lips curled into a sneer.

"What... What are you ..."Javier tensed upinstantly.

"Liana used to be the woman of mydreams, yes. But I can no longer convince myself to marry her."Jasper looked away. "Still, she saved me. If it weren't for her, I

wouldn't have lived to this day. I will repay her with this. After she recovers, I'll break up with her."

"You... You want to break up with Liana?"Javier cried in disbelief.

"Yes," Jasper replied without hesitation.

"Do you think she could handle that news, Jasper? She has serious depression and took her own life because of the marriage postponement! Do you have any idea what she might do if you end things with her?"

"That's why I'll only bring it up onceshe's better."Jasper had already decided on this course of action days ago.

Javier slowly sat back down in his chair, his eyes suddenly taking on a skeptical, sarcastic color.

"You're breaking up with Liana because ofAlyssa, aren't you?"

Jasper's heart skipped, but he still instinctively answered, "No."

"Heh. You're my flesh and blood, boy. Ican read you like a fucking book!" Javier sneered."I saw how you looked at her that day after your grandfather's birthday in front of Winston Taylor. I heard you brought he home that night too. You made an idiot out of Liana, Jasper.

"I have known you since you were a baby, boy. Once you set your mind on something, you never let it go or hesitate to take action. And once you let something go, you never return to it. So it's clear as day that you still hold feelings for Alyssa Taylor!" sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Let me repeat myself. My breaking upwith Liana has nothing to do with Alyssa."

Jasper suddenly stood up, his eyes nearly bloodshot as he glared harshly ahead."Liana shouldn't have done all these foolish things regardless."

"That's only because she loves you! Wouldshe end anger herself if she only cared

about your money and power? Why else would she keep on holding a grudge against Alyssa? 1

"Don't you understand? You two weremarried for three years. It only makes sense that Liana would be jealous. Plus, women always behave like this!" Javier cried.

Sophia instantly came to Javier's mind. Sophia had been like Liana all those years ago, always throwing tantrums and making a fuss whenever upset.

She would curl into his arms whenever she was happy and loved tenderly when she felt like it. It was this that Javier had gotten used to, making it so that he never extricated himself from her hold.

To Javier, this was what love could make a woman do. That was why he assumed Liana only did this because she was too in love with Jasper-just like Sophia was.

"Alyssa loved me too, once."It felt like

someone had pressed a fiery hot brand down Jasper's throat when he said that.

He added, "She never hurt a single soul, not even herself when we were married. When did love become an excuse to hurt, defame, and wreak havoc at other people's expense?"

He then headed for the door, no longer wanting to continue the conversation with his father.

"Are you really going to let the company -11

"Don't worry. You're not the only onewith stakes in this company. I won't allow this to ruin our business."
